Model: Archer A20  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.1.1 build 20190827 rel. 78773(5553)

Model listed above NOT A20, drop down didn't show AC4000

 

Trying to get the settings right to setup some Philips WIZ connected wi-fi led lights. Their tech services asking me about what ports open, I can't find that in the TP-Link anywhere

AC4000 hardware version V 2.0   firmware 1.1.1 build 20190827  rel. 78773(5553)

@Saker 

 

Log into the router's interface.  Click Advanced > Nat Forwarding > Virtual Servers.  This is where you setup port forwarding to specific device IPs

@Saker 

 

This is the list of information they gave me, I am nowhere near knowledgable enough to just understand this and how to implement these settings...

 

Here is the exact list of ports you need to open for the WiZ lights to work fully:
- 38899 and 38900 for UDP on local network
- 8883 to establish secure connection with our servers over the internet. This is the MQTT port. - TCP
- 123 - to obtain the time over the internet, for example for scheduled events, UDP
- 80 - to the internet, TCP
- 53 - to the internet, TCP and UDP to resolve Domain Name issues
- 443 - TCP to manage https
They should work with these ports
supports WPA2 (not WPA entreprise), must have UDP broadcast enabled for pairing

 

If someone can tell me how to check and set these up...? :)

To set up port forwarding, you first assign the MAC address of your device to a specific ip address, then set that ip address to a specific port. You then power cycle the router. The MAC address is printed on the device or you can see it in the device settings. Be sure to assign it to an unused ip in range such as 192.168.0.125. Then assign the ip address to the port.

@Chiguy The devices I port forward are security cameras so I can view them when I am away from home. As long as I can get an internet connection on my iPad, I can view my cameras from anywhere in the world. Many devices have the MAC printed on the unit and others you have to sign on to it to see the MAC. So in my case it is the security DVR MAC and the other Cameras MACs not connected to the DVR that I port forward.
